karfei00 · 06-13-2004, 09:19 PM

i cant get c++ worked in my redhat 9 kernel 2.4.26, initially it was able to compile but after i installed and uninstalled something(i forgot what i did), the c++ compiler seems like not working, but i am very sure that the c++ package is installed.

# ./configure
loading cache ./config.cache
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... yes
checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) is a cross-compiler... no
checking whether we are using GNU C... yes
checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes
checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E
checking for c++... c++
checking whether the C++ compiler (c++ ) works... no
configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C++ compiler cannot create executables.

may i know how to configure and get the c++ comiler to work? thanks a lot

So what happens if you try to compile a simple program?

Create a file test.c containing

Code:

#include <iostream>

int main()
{
std::cout << "Hello World\n";
return 0;
}

And then executing it with "g++ test.c"
